So you tell me: Was this somebody carrying out an elaborate prank or somebody who simply didn’t understand what they were doing?
Whether it was intended as such or not, this ended up being an effective denial-of-service attack against me personally, since I ended up spending quite a bit of time watching the videos closely, then reverse-engineering what the finder believed the vulnerability to be, and then studying the videos again to find out where they went wrong.
I was feeling frustrated just reading the story.
